It’s interesting that this is a style that’s relatively easy to get AI to output, yet AI slop is instantly recognizable while this actually looks like good art.
Living in Prague, at this point I see all Mucha-style art as slop, AI or not. It's plastered all over the place because tourists like it and it's all the same. Sure, it looks nice when you first see it, but man does it get old fast.

I feel like you didn't understand the assignment...
Close, but immediately noticeably worse.
Surprised it got the spelling right.
I had some fun with Bing AI..
Sure, it doesn't exactly have character like the one in the OP.
But I also put almost no effort in prompting (less than a minute). And Bing (Dall-E) isn't exactly the pinnacle of image generation AI. And the whole tech will only get better by time.
The problem is that it doesn't even have to be "very good"; the majority of people are entirely happy with "good enough". It's not hard to imagine how the whole thing will threaten and disrupt so many industries.
Are they really? I'm constantly disappointed by how my fellow humans vote in democracies, so maybe I'm just that out of touch. I thought most people would want to know what they were looking at was the product of human will and effort. Is that not your impression?
Tell it to make her in the style of Mucha and/or art nouveau.
Compounding on the "good enough," i feel like when someone reaches out for a commissioned piece, they have an idea in their mind what they want, but are terrible at explaining it. So what the artist creates might not be what they wanted, with AI, they can make a prompt, see that their explanation sucked, and change their explanation in faster cycle time
just look for "Alphonse MUCHA" online, you'll get all the answers you're looking for
For now. I worry it will get to a point where we won't be able to tell.
If people want to generate art for their own purposes, it's whatever; but yeah, I do worry about gen content muscling in on spaces that are meant for artists to share and appreciate each others' work.
Like when I'm reviewing sketches on Drawabox, it's not just about the image, it's about an aspiring artist trying to get good at making marks so they can express themselves.
